Honestly taking no alcohol whatsoever is probably the best answer to this question but we all know that people will still drink alcohol either way so let's leave it at an occasional glass of wine once or twice a week or maybe a bear or two when you're out with friends.

Alcohol isn't all that bad though, it can actually help you out health-wise if you drink it in moderation. Taking alcohol moderately could help reduce your risk of getting dementia by 23%, reduce your chances of getting cardiovascular disease, reduce your risk of getting full stones my 33%, reduce your chance of getting type 2 diabetes, lengthen your life and even improve your libido.

On the long run, a glass of wine every now and then might actually do you some good, but don't let alcohol consumption become a regular thing for you because it could just as easily mess you up health-wise.

I recommend taking at least 3 glasses of wine a weak and at most, a glass of wine a day. Avoid strong spirits and stick to wine. It usually has less alcohol and has better health benefits.
